Agreed. Fastjet is a very nice brandable domain that was bound to get an offer from an end user one day
Provided there was no TM issue at the time of registration of course.

I hand reg'd skygo.co.uk a couple of years back as a potential airline name, but just sold it to BskyB. They tried to threaten me with a DRS but we settled on terms I was more than pleased with. Sometimes you can be lucky with short brandables.

@aZooZa - although Sky threatened a DRS surely they would have lost it? What rights would they have had to it if you'd had it long before they intro'd "sky go". Would they have argued it was a bad faith registration?

Yes, I'm sure I could have kept it. However, the purchase price they agreed was more than satisfactory to me.
